Good Hair & Pretty Toes

I hate my toes.  Feet in general really kind of freak me out, but I’ve particularly disliked my toes for as long as I can remember.  My size 9 shoe on a 5’4″ frame is a little obnoxious.  And my toes…well,  they are long and really quite dreadful.  It’s just been in recent years that […]

Sunday Highlights

There is never a boring day here especially when it comes to Sundays at Cross Point.  When our team arrived at the Bellevue campus and powered up all the gear, our main amp in the auditorium blew up filling the stage with smoke.  Our team quickly rallied to gather some other gear to make our […]

The Daily Verse

Occasionally there are unexpected collisions in life that alter our course even if we don’t realize it at the time. My collision with Kat Davis was less than a spectacular one (or so I thought at the time.)  We were two young twenty-something interns competing for power and influence and our chance to make our […]

A Lost Art?

Chick-fil-A It’s one of my favorite fast food restaurants.  If you’ve experienced the brilliance of THE chicken sandwich, this probably comes as no surprise.  However my love of Chick-fil-A has less to do with their chicken and more to do with their atmosphere.  Chick-fil-A is also known for their polite and respectful staff.  “My pleasure”… […]

Sunday Highlights

So good to be back at Cross Point this Sunday!  We wrapped up our Empty Promises series… and yes, the rumors are true.  We did use a Katy Perry song in our services yesterday.   “Who Am I Living For” is a killer song that lyrically was a perfect way to end this series.  I […]

Leading Confidently

Fight Back!

Life has seasons.  Some good.  Some bad.  Some slow.  Some busy. Ministry also has seasons and I’m in one of those really busy ones.  The season where you hold on for dear life and pray that you don’t steamroll everyone around you in your haste and intensity. Most of the time I really thrive in […]

Thank You Catalyst

I’m still trying to catch my breath from a great week at Catalyst.  I left immediately from Atlanta to join my extended family in Orlando for a week of family vacation. Can you say W H I R L W I N D? And although a few days have past, I would be remiss if […]

Catalyst Pondering

Along with the majority of the Christian universe, I am at the Catalyst Conference in Atlanta this week.  This will be my 9th time to attend Catalyst  – that just seems ridiculous.  Ridiculous because when I starting coming to this conference for “next generation leaders” I actually was a “next generation” leader.  The startling reality […]
